Book Description
Excerpt from Speech of the Hon. Henry Clay, of Kentucky, Establishing a Deliberate Design, on the Part of the Late and Present Executive of the Unites States: To Break Down the Whole Banking System of the United States, Commencing With the Bank of the United States, and Terminating With the State Banks, and to Create on Their Runs a Government Treasury Bank, Under the Exclusive Control of the Executive But it is unnecessary to dwell lon eron the innume rable roofs of the hostility againstt estate banks, and the de 'berate purpose of those in power to overthrow them. We hear and see daily throughout the country; among their partisans and presses, 'denunciations against banks, corporations, r barons, the spirit of monopoly, &c.; and the howl or gold, hard money, and the constitutional currency; and no one can listen to the speeches of honorable members, friends of the ade ministration, in this house and the other, without being impressed with a perfect conviction that the destruction of the state banks is meditated.
